The division of the enemy dispatch; cd in th's dir. ction was estimated at from twenty to thirty thousand, cavalry, artillery, ami infuhtry. They started down ut three o'ch ck on Friday tdicriiooti.

MY costxrsioss. Prom the for. going, I think I have con clusively provui thul tho object of Gen. McCI, liun, long b, lore the buttle on Fri ll ,y, was to abandon the White House and i.ls'o draw in his right wing across tho C'liick.ihominy. That he has accomplished this most masterly movement with but lit tle loss, in comparison with his punishment of the enemy there con be no doubt, and tl.nl he has' strength. ncd hi position by constructing his lims and changing tho base t'f h s operations to the Janu s river, is equally s ll evideut. There he will havo the eo-opcrutim, of the gunboats, nnd if tho enemy ir.t.mpt to interrupt his supply ves sels by niutU'if a dash on ine tiuines river, tiny will meet with prompt pniiishmeul from the gunboats. nr.TUKn rAiiTicfuns.
